Ok, I promised the Paradox demo translation would be done by now, and it’s not. 🙁
So… here’s the latest dump of files, mostly unedited and untested! What’s new from last time? I don’t remember! Will some of these unedited H-scene translations give you eye cancer? Maybe! Which ones? Find out!

Torotoro’s end of the month update comes with a special surprise, a preview video for Paradox!
You can view his blog update with links to the video on Niconico and a direct download link: http://b.dlsite.net/RG07939/archives/51730313.html

Other things to note:
Promestein: Yes, I’d love to observe you… No, I want to help you.
Sonya responds with: you mean you want to turn Luka into a guinea pig?
promestein says she can inject something to turn bunni into a rabbit
bunni asks “oh yes, it must be carrot elixir”
promestein starts to explain DNA and then gives up and agrees with her
Brunhilde says she’s supposed to wake up at the end of the world and protect it
Sylph shown as a regular party member.
No release date yet, but “coming soon.” It says there will be approximately 230 monster races to choose from. Over 500 enemies, all of whom can become allies. Approximately 140 jobs. That’s probably for the entire Paradox trilogy and not just the first part though.
Demo translation is wrapping up too… Eventually. (Not never)

Toki finishes the series with Dinner. There’s a bonus “dessert” scene with Alma too.
I DO plan to translate this, but I’m going to finish up the Paradox demo first. On that front, I’ve fortunately found a helper and maybe even two. Unfortunately (for you), I’ve been slacking like crazy on the demo translation over the last month. It should have been done weeks ago, yet I still have a lot of work to do on it. 🙁
Hi guys, no new patch right now unfortunately. Despite there being very little to do in the demo, there are a surprisingly large number of words in it. I don’t feel like releasing half a dozen demo patches so I’m waiting until I’ve got just about everything done first. I’m sticking with the original plan to have a first patch with everything except the library, duplicated H-scenes from MGQ, and unimportant NPCs. Then I’ll finish it up with a 100% patch after.
As for after that, I want to get all the VH2 encyclopedia entries translated so I can finally call that one 100% and then at least finish the Sei Monmusu Gakuen Rin route translation so I can release something for that game before Paradox is released. Sorry to the one guy out there who’s more interested in SMMG than Paradox, but I promise I’ll finish translating it eventually…
In the interest of getting something out there for people who want to play immediately, I’m releasing an incredibly bare bones translation of the interface, items/skills/etc., and the first few minutes of story.
First, you need an RPG Maker Decrypter. There are a few of these, but this one is good: http://rpgcrisis.net/forums/files/file/65-rgssad-rgss2a-rgss3a-decrypter/
If you’re having issues with that one, try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?xweoqp2ieep5mxv
1. Download and extract MGQ Paradox Demo into a directory. To avoid locale issues, you should probably rename the directory so that it does not contain Japanese characters.
2. Decrypt!
2a. Run the tool I linked.
2b. File->Open File, pick Game.rgss3a.
2c. Tools->Extract All Files
2d. Success! Close the decrypter.
3. Move decrypted Data and Graphics files from Extract to the game’s base directory, overwriting all duplicates in the game’s original Data and Graphics directories.
4. Delete or rename Game.rgss3a or you’ll get an error on launching the game.
5. Extract the patch into the game’s base directory, adding a Translation folder and overwriting Game.ini.
6. Launch Game.exe. That’s it!
